Commentary/review
A very interesting read. It is mostly concerned with methods used to distinguish between true pseudoscience (as much as it can be defined) and science unjustly rated as a fringe theory. The book presents vocabulary much needed when dealing with the subject. Very useful and on the short side.
I like “A Very Short Introduction” covers in general.
